CSJMU Business School Alumnus Deepak Agarwal: Success Mindset Key A special lecture series organized by the School of Business Management at Chhatrapati Shahjahan Singh Maharaj University (CSJMU) featured Deepak Agarwal, a former student and industrialist, who shared insights with current students. Agarwal emphasized the importance of cultivating a positive mindset and preparing for challenges to achieve success. His speech highlighted how mindset, rather than external resources, determines personal and professional growth. Agarwal began by addressing the role of mindset in overcoming obstacles. He argued that while resources are essential, they are secondary to the ability to adapt and persevere. Using the metaphor of a broken clock, he explained that even a faulty device can mark time correctly, symbolizing how individuals can find opportunities in unexpected circumstances. This example underscored the idea that challenges can be transformed into catalysts for growth. The speaker also stressed the importance of stepping out of one’s comfort zone. He warned that staying within familiar boundaries, while providing a sense of security, can hinder long-term development. Agarwal encouraged students to embrace new experiences and take calculated risks, as true progress arises from confronting unfamiliar situations. Another key point was the need to focus on personal strengths rather than dwelling on weaknesses. Agarwal advised students to identify their unique talents and channel their energy into areas where they can excel. He emphasized that self-awareness and strategic effort are critical to achieving goals. The lecture also touched on the importance of resilience.#csjmu #deepak_agarwal #school_of_business_management #chhatrapati_shahjahan_singh_maharaj_university #success_mindset

Kanpur News: CSJMU Mandates Financial Literacy Course for Undergraduates Kanpur, March 10, 2026 — The Chhatrapati Shahu Maharaj University (CSJMU) has made financial literacy a compulsory vocational course for undergraduate students starting from the current academic session. The decision applies to students pursuing programs such as BA, BSc, and related disciplines. The course will be part of the fourth semester curriculum, with students required to complete it and pass the examination. The course will carry a total of 100 marks, divided into 40 marks for internal assessment and 60 marks for the written exam. Students will need to pay an additional fee of ₹500 to register for the course, with the deadline for fee payment set at March 14, 2026. The university administration has extended the submission deadline for examination forms and fees to accommodate students. This move follows a similar mandate for the cyber security course, which was introduced in the third semester. However, the previous policy faced criticism as students reported inadequate preparation for the subject, leading to several failures. Many students who failed the cyber security course now have to retake it as a backlog paper. Students have expressed concerns about the mandatory nature of such courses, arguing that vocational subjects should align with individual interests rather than being enforced. They warned that similar issues could arise with the new financial literacy requirement, as some students may lack prior knowledge or interest in the subject. University Vice-Chancellor Rakesh Kumar Mishra stated that the decision aims to equip students with essential life skills.#csjmu #chhatrapati_shahu_maharaj_university #rakesh_kumar_mishra #financial_literacy_course #cyber_security_course
